When the original owner brought my '83 over, he had a/c installed at the dealer down in CA. Wish he hadn't. Those guys routed one of the pressure lines directly over the top of the oil filter housing. Makes getting at the filter way tougher! Clutters up the engine bay, to boot.

These cars weren't "designed" for air conditioning. It was an afterthought for the lazy Americans.
